Generating high-quality jobs and sustainable growth across London, the UK and the world.
Impact in our DNA
Queen Mary's distinctive history demonstrates the ability of a university to unlock potential and foster growth and prosperity where it is needed most. Today, we are at the heart of Whitechapel’s transformation into a global innovation hub: every £1 we spend generates over £7 for the UK economy.
Research for the real world
Brilliant ideas are only the beginning: we are just as excited by how they will work in practice. From our commercial subsidiary, Queen Mary Innovation, to our Business Development and Community Engagement teams, to our partnership with Barts Health NHS Trust, Queen Mary’s innovation pipeline is changing our world.
The future of innovation
Universities are in a unique position to not only invent new products but also rethink how entire industries and communities could look. At Queen Mary we are working with our partners to re-imagine the music industry, train life scientists for the labs of tomorrow and make space-based solar energy a reality, among many other big-picture projects.
Research spotlight

Re-ID is specialist software that re-identifies people more accurately than highly trained human experts. It was created by Vision Semantics Limited (VSL), a company co-founded and led by Professor Sean Gong.
A smart toothpaste that “knows” what your teeth need
Researchers from the Queen Mary's Institute of Dentistry and the School of Engineering and Materials Science have collaborated to develop an award-winning ‘smart’ toothpaste. BioMinF uses patented bioactive glass technology to protect teeth from decay and reduce sensitivity and pain.
Antennas have been around for more a 100 years. But how can we make them smaller, cheaper and with more functionality so they can be used for real world problems?
Working beyond the border − supporting labour rights in European Union trade policy
